Abstract

EEG emotion recognition based on Granger causality (GC) brain networks mainly focus on the EEG signal from the same-frequency bands, however, there are still some causality relationships between EEG signals in the cross-frequency bands. Considering the functional asymmetric of the left and right hemispheres to emotional response, this paper proposes an EEG emotion recognition scheme based on cross-frequency GC feature extraction and fusion in the left and right hemispheres. Firstly, we calculate the GC relationship of EEG signals according to the frequencies and hemispheres, and mainly focus on the causality of the cross-frequency EEG signals in left and right hemispheres. Then, to remove the redundant connections of the GC brain network, an adaptive two-stage decorrelation feature extraction scheme is proposed under the condition of maintaining the best emotion recognition performance. Finally, a multi-GC feature fusion scheme is designed to balance the recognition accuracy and feature number of each GC feature, which comprehensively considers the influence of the recognition accuracy and computational complexity. Experimental results on the DEAP emotion dataset show that the proposed scheme can achieve an average accuracy of 84.91% for four classifications, which improved the classification accuracy by up to 8.43% compared with that of the traditional same-frequency band GC features.
